Chiocca Reports From Beech Hill, “Here Comes the Sun”

With the number of feathers that Chief “Oogga” Chiocca already has in his cap during his long and illustrious career as TA here in Rockland, none will stand out more than this one. Chiocca has delivered on a promise to bring a full-scale solar power plant to Rockland on land once considered hazardous and unbuildable. Construction has begun in Rockland Hills; and it will only be a matter of months before Rockland is uploading power to the “big grid” in exchange for energy credits. Chiocca estimates the plant will generate enough free juice to power half of all Rockland’s municipal electricity needs all year long. Chiocca credits long-time Rockland energy Czar, Jim Paul, with making it a reality. “Jim Paul and his people have been bringing solar power to Rockland for years in our schools and this solar array is the culmination of those efforts.”

Rocklandnews.com will chronicle the construction of the solar array, which should take 3 to 5 months to complete.

Stay tuned as we watch this old forgotten trash heap turn to solar gold for Rockland residents.
